"Tell the King, Thorne has now cultivated to the early stage of the 7th Order, and is expected to break through at the age of 18!" Josiah stood in the center of the hall and said respectfully, his smug face could not be concealed.

When Kukabi heard this, he looked at Josiah and nodded approvingly.

"Has my son Sous been practicing well lately?" Kukabi turned his head to look at Monto.

"Your Highness, he ...... His Royal Highness usually practices very hard, and he will go to the Wuding Mountain Range every day to practice, but His Royal Highness ...... His Highness, he ......" Monto's expression was slightly flustered.

"What's wrong with my son?!" Kukabi's heart lifted up at once, and he hurriedly asked in a panic.

"Nothing...... Your Highness...... Encountering danger and being surrounded by the Wasteland Wolves, I have sent people to search for the Wuding Mountains and found His Highness, who was seriously injured and was accompanied by a strange beast of unknown strength. Montto fell to one knee and did not dare to look up.

"Steppenwolf?! That's a five-star level beast! What's more, Sous has just broken through to the 5th order! How could he possibly handle it?! Why don't you stop him and let him go to the Wuding Mountains?! It's too dangerous! ”

"Your Highness said that if you knew about this matter, you would definitely not agree to him taking risks, so His Highness said......"

After hearing Monto's words, Kukabi suddenly became angry: "Nonsense! Monkey business! You bring him back to me right away! I can't spare him! ”

"Also, postpone the trial for a few days until Sous recovers."

"Yes, king."

This was the end of the secret conversation.

************************

Sous was sitting in the forest with Kumi, quietly cultivating.

After this battle, Soas has broken through the fifth order and officially advanced to the sixth order early stage essence god!

Under Kumi's tutelage, Sahous mastered a special technique called Light and Darkness.

This technique is very wonderful, on the one hand, Sous is in the light, and the withered is in the dark, one front and the other side, attacking at the same time, and playing the battle of the two at the same time, complementing each other.

On the other hand, Sous and Kumi can share two eyes, and they have excellent vision during battle, which greatly compensates for the Giants' natural half-blind vision.

And in the state of Kumi and Suus's alliance, even in the face of the ninth-order consummate essence god, he can resist for a moment.

"Hoo ......"

After a long time, Soas exhaled a breath and felt the power in his body, and couldn't help but grin: "Haha! Wither, you're amazing! Actually perfectly integrated the moves into my bloodline power, if I'm not mistaken, I'm afraid that your combat power has also reached the level of the middle of the ninth order now, right? ”

"That's right, you only need one foot to enter the ninth order of consummation."

Kumi opened her eyes and said with a smile: "You have also become stronger, although you are only at the level of the early stage of the sixth order, but the actual combat power can definitely match the existence of the early stage of the seventh order."

If it weren't for me taking a big bite of the Fennel Spirit Fruit King, I'm afraid it would take a few months before I would be able to reach the Ninth Order Consummation! Kumi was very proud at the moment.

When Sous heard this, he immediately said excitedly: "Wouldn't it be soon, and we will be able to go home?" ”

Kumi shook her head slightly, sighed, and said in a rather low tone: "Sous, why don't you go back first, I still have something to do." ”

"What? You don't want to go back with me? ”

The joy on Sous's face disappeared instantly, and he asked with a frown.

"I'm going to go back and pick the Fennel Fruit King after I recover, and besides, I don't know why, it seems that something big has happened in York City recently, and all forces are ready to move, and they all want to take advantage of the opportunity!"

Kumi said helplessly: "I have been to Soke City a few times to inquire about the news, but I can't get in touch with the higher circles at all, so I can't give you an accurate answer, but I vaguely feel that it should be related to Salang, I want to go and see." ”

"Salang?"

Thaus was stunned, then fell into deep thought, and muttered, "I remember, Salang seems to be from the Dark Church? ”

The title of Salang, Sous naturally knew that as far as he knew, Salang was a taboo in the entire York City, and no one dared to mention it, only he read the local chronicles of York City after practicing, and roughly browsed about Salang.

Before Sharon fell, the entire city of York was shrouded in black fog, and any outlying creature that touched it would be instantly killed!

And Salang's existence maintained those black fogs for thousands of years, until after his fall, they gradually dispersed!

Kumi was also very confused, her heart sank, and she said solemnly: "Such a legendary powerhouse, it is said that he has an extremely rare talent, and has three top inheritances, namely killing, illusion and space, each of which can be called an amazing existence, especially illusion, which is the best in York City!"

Suoas asked in horror, "And what kind of terrifying existence will it be to kill him?" ”

Kumi shook her head, sighed and said, "It stands to reason that Salang's death is definitely not simple, not only Yorktown but also the entire Hudell Kingdom!" It's a pity that my current authority is too low, and there is no news about it yet. ”

After hearing this, Sous also took a deep breath and said slowly: "It seems that if you want to figure it out, you still need to go to Soke City." ”

Kumi nodded: "Well, I estimate that York City must have been a gathering of storms over the years, with all kinds of cows, ghosts, snakes and gods gathering, and now although there are not many clues about Salang's death for the time being, York City is not as calm as it seems on the surface." ”

At this point, it suddenly stopped, and turned its head to look into the distance.

In the distance, a group of figures galloped towards them.

Thaus followed its gaze and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"The troops of the Kingdom of Huder?"

Kumi retracted her gaze, slowly stood up, and said, "Looks like they've found that thing." ”

"What's that?" Sous asked curiously.

"A black stone." Kumi said lightly: "I have read records in ancient books, and that black stone should be the 'magic core'. ”

Magic Core!

Sous's eyes shrank, and a memory of the black stone immediately came to his mind, it was a treasure made of pure magical energy, very valuable, and it was the treasure of the kingdom of Hurdle.

If it is auctioned by the outside world, I am afraid that the price will soar to 10 million gold coins!

This kind of thing is also a huge help for Sous.

After all, his pupil devouring technique needed to devour a large amount of elemental power to increase his power, and if he had a demon core with a quality beyond the eighth order as the core, his attack power would definitely skyrocket tenfold!

Thinking of this, Sueus couldn't help but get a little excited. However, the current financial resources do not allow it, so we can only wait and see.

Kumi rubbed her hands and smiled: "If we snatch this thing, we will definitely be able to exchange it for a lot of wealth!" ”

Sous shook his head and said indifferently, "It's impossible to rob. ”

Kumi smiled and stuck out her tongue: "Hmm...... I wasn't kidding, so let's split up, I've got to go back and pick the fruit! ”

Sous nodded, and then looked at the figure of Kumi's distant figure and thought: "It's been so many days since I came out, and the day of the trial has passed, will my father Monto look for me...... I think so......"

******************

The martial arts training ground is densely packed with teenagers.

They all have a temperament that is obviously different from the children of other families: introverted and resolute.

"That's it! You can practice here today for three hours. Three hours later, it's time to go to the trial. Montor said as he stood on the stage.

"Monto-sama! Don't worry, we'll do our best! A loud shout rang out from among the teenagers below.

Montor nodded in satisfaction, then turned to Thornes and Thorne on the side and said, "Don't be lazy either, you two go and get ready." ”

"Yes!" Sous and Thorne replied in unison.

After waiting for Montto to instruct, Thorne walked over to Souss: "Hey, I said Sous, are you really sure you want to participate in the trial?" It's a losing loss every time, and it's too late for you to regret it now, otherwise ......"

"That's right, I decided!" Souss's unwavering tone made Thorne feel helpless: "Now that the decision has been made, then I don't think I will change it again." ”

"You're asking for your own trouble." Thorne raised his eyebrows, sighed deliberately and said: "I advise you to admit defeat as soon as possible, so as not to be beaten too badly later, this trial is very dangerous, after all, if you are not careful, you will lose your life." ”

"I'm not afraid." Sous laughed, and couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Looking at Sous's expression, Thorne could only shake his head lightly and turn to leave.

Although he usually quarrels with Sous, Thorne doesn't want him to die in this trial, so he reminds Sous.

As for what Sous would choose, Thorne didn't care.

The cultivation time of the three seasons passed in the blink of an eye, and when Thorne and Sous came out of the training room, they found that the eyes of the teenagers around them were focused on them.

"Sous, Thorne, you two listen to me. This trial is about your future destiny, and I want you to do your best. Montor walked up to Thorne and Thorne and said.

After hearing Monto's words, many teenagers became nervous, holding their breath and listening carefully to his next words.

Montor continued, "This trial is divided into two sessions, the first of which is tasked with hunting down the dark creature 'Shadow Beast'.

It is a very cunning and hidden demonic creature, and it must be found and killed in the shortest possible time, and the top 10 kills will enter the second trial according to the left ear of the Shadowmon.

The second is a wheel battle, where everyone draws lots, and every team of two plays against each other, and the loser will be eliminated, no matter what tactics or means are used, and the last person standing in the ring is the winner.

It's a tough and brutal test, and whoever wins will be the future pillars of the family. ”

Montor paused for a moment, looked around, and continued, "Again, this trial is very dangerous.

Once you encounter a mortal threat, immediately crush the jade slip and escape! Do you understand?! ”

"Understood!" All the teenagers shouted in unison.

Monto nodded and announced, "This trial has officially begun!" Then he galloped west with a few guards.

After Montor left, Thorne and Sauss were not idle.

The two quickly rushed into the grove next to the training ground and began to look for their prey.

Sous had a lot of thoughts in his head, thinking about how he would make it to the first trial.

Soas thought carefully about the rules in his mind: "Count by the left ear, then...... I know! ”

"Dark Creature - Shadowmon!" Suddenly, Thorne thought of the appearance of the dark creature.

"Although dark creatures do not have the same bloodline and abilities as Bat Monsters, they are after all beings born from dark forces, and they should also have special abilities similar to Bat Monsters.

Dark creatures are transformed by dark power, different from those strange beasts in the Wuding Mountain Range, their magic crystals are full of dark power, and they cannot be absorbed except for dark cultivators.

If you're going to compete in speed, I'm not afraid of you. Thinking of this, Sous relaxed.

The woods were large, but with Sous's powerful perception, they were clearly reflected in his mind. With his keen instincts, Sauss quickly shuttled through the forest, searching for dark creatures.

Eventually, Sahous spotted a large rhinoceros in the dense bushes, with a smaller creature lying on its back.

It was pitch black and exuded a chilly aura.

"Found you!" The corners of Thorne's mouth lifted slightly, and his toes tapped, and he leaped into the air.

The wave of his fists brought out gusts of wind and thunder.

......A piercing roar sounded suddenly, and the little guy lying on the back of the rhinoceros beast suddenly turned around.

It propped itself on all fours, bared its hideous fangs, revealing a mouth full of white and sharp canine teeth, and pounced on Thorne in mid-air with a ferocious look.

Seeing this, Sous did not panic, his legs bent, and his body twisted violently, dodging the attack of the little thing.

Then the right leg quickly kicked the little guy in the neck, kicking him to the ground, and then pressing the little thing's body with his right knee.

"Roar~~~" The little black creature let out a painful groan, struggling to break free from Thorne's restraints.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard it tries, it can't do it.

Looking at the black creature that had been completely subdued, Thorne smiled slightly: "Okay, caught." ”

Then, Sous slowly stood up from the little black one.

Sous stretched out his left arm, his index finger and thumb together to form a sword, and tapped it towards the black creature's forehead, and a wisp of golden-red flame attached to the black creature's forehead.

Golden-red flames burned on the little one, scorching pain that made the black creature scream.

"Woo~~~" The black creature's terrible wail resounded in all directions, and it struggled in pain for a long time and couldn't get rid of the flames' burns on itself.

"I didn't expect it to be so easy." Sous withdrew the flame from his right finger with a playful smile on his face.

He was just about to make a move, when he suddenly noticed something, raised his eyebrows, and turned sideways to avoid it.

There was a cracking sound, and Sous reached out with lightning and grabbed the arrows that were galloping in with his left hand.

He looked up and saw an arrow glowing green, with green smoke coming from its end.

Sous squinted his eyes at the man who was shooting an arrow not far away.
